What this record means
The record shows that the mark “GROUNDED” was registered on the Principal Register on April 16, 2002 for the class 025 goods of jackets, shirts, blouses, pants, jeans and shorts, and that the registration was cancelled on January 24, 2009 because the registrant, Neutral Clothing Corp., did not file a Section 8 declaration. The cancellation means the mark is no longer enforceable in the United States. The goods listed are the only scope shown, so a similar name used for apparel in that same category would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the mark control over all uses of the word “grounded.” No opposition, cancellation, or court action appears in the supplied history, so there is no visible enforcement activity. The last meaningful event was the cancellation in 2009. If you are thinking of a similar name for clothing, this history suggests a potential risk of confusion with the cancelled mark in that specific apparel line.
